发明名称 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REGISTERING AND UN-REGISTERING MEMBERSHIP IN VIRTUAL LOCAL AREA NETWORKS
摘要 In one embodiment, a network device in a computer network determines a plurality of attribute events that each represent a virtual local area network (VLAN) registration state of a respective VLAN of a plurality of VLANs in the computer network. The plurality of attribute events are grouped into a plurality of sets of two or more attribute events. For each set of two or more attribute events, an encoded value is computed for the set with an encoding algorithm that encodes the two or more attribute events of the set into a single encoded value. Each of the plurality of encoded values is loaded within an attribute structure of a protocol data unit (PDU) message, such that the plurality of encoded values that encompass the plurality of VLANs are included within the attribute structure of the PDU message. The PDU message is transmitted to one or more other network devices.
